[ Loki's certainty is troubling, but Thor's mind is set and death has never been a fear strong enough to turn it. It's true that he cannot fight Thanos and win as he is now - even Thor realizes that - but he must still find a way to succeed. What other option does he have?
It's the next words that cut through him as surely as a knife. Thor feels each one. A part of him had known from the moment Loki spoke of Thanos that there would be further casualties, that what loss he had suffered before could always be compounded. He sees it vividly, like so many of the nightmares that now follow him into the waking world. And yet, even despite the horror, something else clicks slowly into place. Loki's reaction to him, the way he says our people, and now the way he paints the scene with Thor at Thanos' mercy.
Thor's magic doesn't surge to meet his brother's this time, nor does he try to placate Loki's temper. Instead, Thor looks at him, not wanting to believe the conclusion that he's already come to. He wills it to be a lie, just one of the many that have come between them for so long. ]
